and is also not suspicious.

Not suspicious ?

Oh what it is to be young and innocent when it comes to matters internet.


Step 1: Google ACRONOC INC
Result : "Houston Texas Colocation, Dedicated Servers, VPS Solutions ..."

Step 2: Conclude that one of their customers is deliberatley or unknowingly running an open relay.

Step 3: Send spam message with full headers to abuse at acronoc.com

And finally.... the whole thing stinks of alarm bells suspicious if you just look at the URLs it's trying to take you to. I don't see skype dot com anywhere.
